I repeat, nisht azoi klor. See my post of Jan 9 at
<http://www.aishdas.org/avodah/vol25/v25n014.shtml#06>.

I try to get a consistent shitah out of what looks like conflicting
quotes, and conclude that the Ramchal's perishus excludes that which leads
to aveirah, and that which someone can get addicted to ("ad sheyatzrikh
kol kach vetachbulos lehafrisho meihem"). Not actually anything not
actively needed for avodas H'.

Tir'u baTov!
